The Office Surprise
EDITORS COMMENTS
- A 20th-century Comic Postcard This delightful comic postcard, hailing from the 20th century, showcases a humorous moment between a middle-aged man and a pretty, young woman in an office setting. The man, with a quizzical expression, is seen peering into a bottom drawer of his desk, while the woman, with a mischievous grin, looks on from behind. The scene is filled with double entendres and verbal pettiness that were common in office culture during the era. The man's intrigued look suggests he's found something unexpected in the drawer, while the woman's smirk implies she's been playing a prank or hiding something amusing. The man, named Don, and the woman, named Miss Smith, are both dressed in formal attire, signifying their professional roles in the office. Don, with his balding head and glasses, is the manager, while Miss Smith, with her youthful charm and floral blouse, is the young, pretty employee. The postcard's creator, Donald McGill, was a renowned British comic artist known for his saucy and humorous postcards. His work often contained innuendos and double meanings, making this postcard a fun and lighthearted representation of office life in the 20th century. The postcard's caption reads, "When Donald found what was in Miss Smith's drawer!" The playful tone and the use of the names "Donald" and "Miss Smith" add to the overall comedic effect of the image. This postcard is a charming reminder of a bygone era when office life was filled with petty cash, hidden drawers, and plenty of verbal banter. It's a fun and funny snapshot of a time when humor was an essential part of the daily grind.
